are 3000mAh batteries any good?

there are a lot of 3000mAh batteries on ebay... that are not expensive.. are they any good? how much more battery life will i get?

anyone has tried one of those 3000mah batteries?

EBay ones tend to be crap. Mugen s 3200mah is good and does the job reliabiy

Mugen is pretty expensive.. any other cheaper but good brand/model?

i am using mugen 3200, i will score it 8.5/10, the bad points are the case very loose and blocked flash light in a certain degree.

Nothing some blutack wont fix. And no I don't know. There's a post further down documenting some people's experiances with ebay if you want to look for it

Well if you willing to sacrifice your phone's look go ahead and try it, but it will get very ugly with that thickness...

Where can i buy one of those? i never seen such a big battery.

Remember you'll always get what you pay for. If you want a second battery buy an orginal one.

thx for all your advices
i finally opted for an oem battery for desire/nexus one

I'm got the 3200mAh from saido. It's a great battery and worth its price!

how much is it? where did u buy it?

The "ebay" batteries tends to have smaller capacity than announced.

Exacly...anything over original 1400 is bs in my opinion. I've heard about 3000mAh for HTC Evo but that battery is much bigger in size and require custom back case.

i got myself a 3200mAh mugen battery from the states best thing i ever did lasting for 5 days now on one charge

I bought a 3000mAh Extended Battery from the seller.

what rom are you on when you have 5 days duration ?

It's great if you want your battery to last days without charge but terrible if you want a nice sleak phone due to the fact that the 3200amh batteries add extra thickness to the phone which really makes it look ugly in my opinion. Mugen power batteries are really good though they are expensive. I'd be weary about buying from eBay because although they may be cheaper, a lot of the times they're not the capacity stated and have bad quality lithium ions that simply don't hold a charge!

Can I buy it in Ukraine? Somebody know?

I have a 3000mAh battery, but the only way I can get a full charge is with an external charger.
Then I can get between 3-4days from 1 charge.
Charging the 3000mAh in my phone, doesn't seem to last any longer than a standard battery.

Mugen 1800mAh Extended Battery Shipping August 19th!

Friggin GREAT!
Just after I read tons of pages here on Anker and Chichitec batteries I find out that Mugen also has an extended battery shipping this month.
So what do you guys think, is Mugen the way to go?
Oh by the way it costs $45. That's a bit more than Anker and Chichitec. Heck for $45 I could have a Chichitec and Anker with a wall charger to boot.

id go with either anker or chichitec instead.

At $45? No thx.
They may as well rename their company Seidio.

I use the 1730mah evo3d battery same size and everything just the print are reversed... I just can't comment on usage its been 24 hours

[Q] Mugen VS Anker

Hello Guys,
My question is which battery is the best - Anker 1900 mAh (which actually proved to be around 1700 mAh) or Mugen Power 1950 mAh for Sensation/EVO 3D (not sure of the capacity is real). I have tried to find which battery is the best (even read the entire Anker thread) but I was unable to get a definite answer. I could see that Mugen is twice the money of Anker but it is coming from a well known company and also has temperature sensor. However Anker is a lot cheaper and provides good enough juice for its 15 bucks.
My HTC Sensation costs around $500 so I wouldn't mind giving $40 more for the Mugen battery but if the performance is small compared to the Anker battery I would prefer the latest.
So my question is which one is the best and have anyone tested both of them?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

I am in the same predicament, been investigating the topic for a while now and... I guess they're very much alike - you won't find many (if any) people that bought Anker and swapped it for Mugen or vice versa.
The main thing is lack of disappointed people, can't see valid complaints against any of them, therefore my choice will be Anker - just because I a greedy bastard...

I have both and have used both for some time and I can say that the Mugen definately performes better than the Anker. Roughly I'd say that the Anker gives me 10% extra time over the original and the Mugen 25%, yeah it's really that good.
Downside is of course the price, but if you have some money, do buy the Mugen

Thank you atticus182. So it seems that Mugen is significantly better than Anker. Just in case I submitted a ticket with Mugen asking if I could return the battery if it proves to be with less capacity than 1950 mAh. Will let you know when they reply.
DaHorse: If Mugen prove to be real 1950 mAh then the price is justified but I guess I will just have to check it by myself.
Meanwhile if there are other forum members that have tested both batteries?

you can check out this thread to see people's performance in regards to the Mugen battery.

It seems like its pretty definitive that the Mugen will indeed outperform the Anker. the problem is their store is out of stock until december 9th so you can't even get it for a reasonable price until at least then. Also, don't forget about the review done at batteryboss.org in which the reviewer showed that they might not be as great of a brand name as you thought.

As said, my vote goes to the Mugen.

Darn it, just ordered an Anker... Maybe give it a try and then buy the Mugen half december to compare. Didn't spot the Mugen topic btw.

I vouch for mugen too. Mines (htc evo 3d 1950mah) lasts almost a full day on heavy use. Plus the temp sensors work unlike anker.

I have the Mugen and am very happy with it. I used to get home from work with 40 - 45% battery left on stock. Now with the Mugen I have 60 - 65% left

For me there is no real question...I don't know what is Anker...just saw a lot of spamming everywhere on how cheap and cool it is.
I know that I'm a Mugen fan for their quality, service and social presence. When it comes to performance - I'm using Mugen 3300mAh for a year already on my Nexus S and know at least two people with HTC phones who cannot live without their batteries. I don't mind giving extra 30-40$ for good quality, support, warranty and facebook presence for such a niche brand. Mugen rocks!

I already have the Anker and am pretty happy with it but I'm considering getting the Mugen as well. Can't decide though..

Lol if anything your post sounds more like spam. I know mugen is a good brand obviously, but the anker thread is 120+ pages for a reason. not just spam.
also, why do you care about a brand's "social presence"?

Hello my friends,
sorry for my question here but i wouldn´t like to open a new thread for my question.
Also, who can i buy a original Mugen Accu for my Sensation. My original HTC Accu have enough power for me but i like a little bit more and i think Mugen is the best way or does the anker pass to me better?
Yours sincerely
BS
PS: Sorry i´m not so good in english

Is there another battery monitor app besides battery monitor widget that tells you the battery's capacity?

There is no app for that. You need hardware to check the power of the battery.

what about Chichitec? $20 on amazon

I think Chichitec and Anker are almost the same in performance. I'd go for Anker because of its lower price.

I just shelled out for a Mugen battery. Why did I go for Mugen over Anker? Well, the reason is a bit lame, but I just don't feel right buying that sort of thing from (and only from) eBay, of all places...

both types are made in same factory in china?

The Samsung 1800mah battery will fit this phone. I used to use that and the andida 2300 mah battery and I never had to worry about having a dead phone

I should have bought the Andida one but i bought the one 2000mah one

I bought a 3500mAh from eBay. The actual battery says that it is a replacement for an i9000. It includes a new back that is for the t959 series. A gel/silicon case stretches over the case. The battery in the case was a little loose, so I placed a business card in there like I did for my old blackberry.
eBay item number - 230845639488

I've tested the Andida "2800 mAh" battery and don't believe that it has significantly more capacity than the 1800 mAh ones out there. It's a fine battery, but I wouldn't have any regrets with buying an 1800 mAh OEM. Anything in the same form factor as the OEM battery isn't going to have significantly more capacity than 1800 mAh. There is some basic physics/chemistry involved that reinforces "If it sounds too good to be true..."

Well ima test the 2000 mah battery. It comes with two so I'm pretty Much satisfied

BATTERY 3500mah

Somebody test this extended battery 3500 not slim with bigger battery cover??

Was this available in malaysia??

Where to get it?

EBay is full of it.. with shipping all over the world

I have one, from Dealerextreme though. It is surely not a real 3500 mAh one. PolarCell's 1800 mAh lasts longer than that.

I think it's a bit dangerous to use a so powerful battery pack... if some water falls on it you are in trouble (personal experience)

I got one of these wonderful Raikko 5200 mAh external USB Chargers.(Just google it). They are not very cheap, but they work with all my devices and have a huge capactiy.

I have been using those ebay 3500 mA batteries for about a year with no issues. Only problem was the plastic cover they sent with some, tends to break easly and doesn't fit so good, then I had to add some tape between battery and plastic door for the battery doesn't move inside. Performance is good, usually last about 3 days depending of usage.

My experience with a high capacity battery is not so good.
I bought a year ago a Mugen 3200 mAh batt. Now after 1 year it charges very quick and discharges very quick. My original 1500 mAh batt now lasts longer.

The most replys on ebay to the dealer for the big battery are not so good.
You can find it on Amazon too and some more no good news from the buyer.
I think best choice not to buy it.
Kind regards dekker

I still believe in 1500 mAh original battery from our SGS, even bought one when my first original battery
